The Porsche Panamera. It's arguably the most unique blend of performance and luxury on the road today. Distinctively Porsche, and yet unlike anything its manufacturer had ever produced before. This 2016 Porsche Panamera GTS is the best of both automotive worlds - it will surround you in comfort while offering a driving experience you'll never tire of. It was already a world class automobile when it rolled off the line, and it benefits from a whole host of factory options that have been added to make it an absolute top tier ride. It would be difficult to even picture a Panamera based solely on its storied heritage but when you catch your first glimpse of this GTS, it all comes into focus. A well-proportioned sedan from a company whose history is strongly linked to high performance sports cars, it does share some styling cues from its stablemate - the universally coveted 911 - and its generous dimensions come at no expense to its visual impact. This is just a flat-out great looking car. Its vibrant white exterior is in clean shape, with an outstanding shine. On sunny days, the sizable sunroof opens without issue to give you plenty of blue-sky exposure. The interior of this Porsche will certainly impress you. It's unusually well-appointed and in great shape, with fresh leather and suede surfaces wherever you look. The front buckets appear as if they've seen virtually no action at all and the combination of leather and carbon fiber on the dash area is really sharp. Comfort and convenience features abound - in addition to the expected air conditioning and power window, door locks and mirrors, you'll also find heated power seats, a navigation system and a backup camera that show their findings on an amply-sized display, and a Burmester premium AM/FM/CD sound system that features both Bluetooth and satellite connectivity. A set of Porsche-embroidered floor mats add the perfect finishing touch. Raise the rear hatch and you'll be surprised at how much room will be at your disposal. Performance has been synonymous with the Porsche brand ever since the company's first car rolled off the line decades ago and, of course, this GTS is no exception. It's powered by a fuel injected 4.8-liter V8 that puts out a full 440 horsepower - enough to rocket this streamlined but sizable car to a 0-60 time of just above five seconds. This state-of-the-art engine resides in a bay that's as clean as you could want, surrounded by fresh hoses and belts, and teams with a 7-speed automatic transmission to provide an outstanding driving experience. Of course, you'd rightfully expect more than just strong straight-line acceleration from a Porsche, and this Panamera delivers in this regard, as well. It's unusually nimble for a car of any size - let alone a sedan - and its low-stance and adaptive air suspension in front and back makes it a force to contend with on any skidpad. Armed with all wheel drive, it's also unusually adept at taming the asphalt during unforgiving weather. A set of 20” Sprocket wheels - one of this Porsche's several substantial upgrades - wrapped with Michelin Pilot 4 Sports tires that appear nearly new, complete the look of this unforgettable ride. In top form both mechanically and aesthetically, this 2016 Porsche Panamera GTS will offer an unbeatable combination of stellar driving experience and pride of ownership for its next lucky owner.
